Universal Tube Formation Media

It has been demonstrated that endothelial cells will rapidly form capillary-like structures in vitro when plated on top of a reconstituted basement membrane extracellular matrix. Using this method, it takes around a week to see any tubeformation. However, our Universal Tube Formation Media provides a quick and robust method to measure the ability of endothelial cells to form three-dimensional tube structures in vitro in less than 18 hours. Each lot of media is subjected to comprehensive quality control tests using primary human cells. A panel of differentbioassays affirms the media sustain a proper environment for expected cell-type-specific culture, growth, plating, karyotype, physiology, morphology, viability, population doublings, surface markers, cryopreservation, differentiation, and/or induction. In addition, every lot of media is tested for the absence of microbial contaminants (fungi, bacteria, mycoplasma). The products undergo further quality control for correct pH, osmolality, and lack of endotoxins.

Small volumes of URP1 culture media vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

MBS556640 is a culture media targeting URP1. Also known as Universal Tube Formation Media.
